I bought some chicks (straight run for $1.99) at Tractor Supply.. and the label read "Rainbow egg layers". I thought to myself these chickens must lay colorful eggs (hence the sign). I asked the lady there at TSC if they laid colorful eggs and she assumed they did, so i went on and got them either way. Next thing you know i googled rainbow egg layers and got nothing but a combination of colorful eggs from different breeds (not a specific breed). I kept digging doing more research and i bumped into "Dixie Rainbow egg layers" so now i have these little chicks thinking they were a mixture of Easter Eggers or Ameraucanas , Araucanas, Faverolles, Olive eggers etc. I have never heard of this breed specifically (I'm new to raising chickens) . I don't mind this breed but i wanted to add some egg color to my flock since i already have brown egg layers . Does anybody own or have heard or know about this breed?
and can anyone tell me if this is what i have ?
Do you have any pictures of what they look like as adults??
I know is kind of early to tell (1 week old) but most of you here know way more about chickens than i do. Thank you !!
